Worcester boss Dean Ryan claims he has a "unique" challenge on his hands after his side suffered their seventh straight Premiership defeat - this time 21-6 at home to Bath.
Tries from Anthony Perenise and replacement Horacio Agulla sealed the 21-6 win for the visitors, a result which in turn kept Worcester Warriors rooted to the bottom of the table on two points.
The hosts had Paul Warwick to thank for their points, but Ryan is still searching for his first Aviva Premiership victory since taking charge this summer.
Despite the gloom surrounding Sixways, though, he refused to be downbeat, instead insisting that his troops are taking steps forward in their performance.
"I thought we played some decent rugby when we got the chance, but we just couldn't manage the game as well as they did," Ryan said.
"They've got a big pack and they squeezed us a little bit and we were left trying to find an answer in conditions that were pretty poor.
"But overall that is a significant improvement for us. We have got a better understanding of our game, and against a side who were not on top form like Bath we might have got something out of the game.
"There are so many new faces and new coaches, and we've not got a history to go back to and say 'this is what we've done in the past'.
"The challenge here is unique. We understand what it is, the guys who came here understand, and if we can get this right in the long term it will be the most rewarding thing we have ever done."
George Ford gave Bath the foundation for victory with 11 points from the tee, but it was tries in each half that proved the Warriors' undoing in damp conditions.
Perenise burrowed his way over on 28 minutes and Agulla, who had just come onto the pitch, made sure of the win with 20 minutes remaining.
"Worcester, like we thought they would do, came out and started the second half really well, they possibly could have got a try," said Bath head coach Mike Ford.
"But we took out that purple patch that they had, and went and scored a try at the other end which killed the game and we saw the game out.
"All week we have been training in dry weather, and Kyle Eastmond has said to me 'that's the first rugby game that I've not touched the ball'.
"That's what the conditions do to you sometimes, it's not about playing rugby it's about field position. I thought in general we played the field position really well.
"At half-time we talked about the lead we had against Leicester, the lead we had against London Irish and how we didn't go and finish them off.
"Although the start to the second half was a bit jittery, I thought we got hold of the game and the substitutions were good and I was pretty pleased with the 80-minute performance."

Dec 13, 2011
The latest GOP frontrunner, Newt Gingrich, has now been become the top campaign newsmaker after weeks of attention to Herman Cain and allegations about his personal behavior.
The 2012 presidential campaign once again topped the news agenda, accounting for 24% of the newshole during the week of December 5-11, according to the Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism. That was only slightly higher than the previous week's level of 23%.
The focus of that coverage was squarely on Gingrich, the former House speaker who has quickly risen to the top of the polls. He was a dominant newsmaker in 47% of all campaign stories studied last week, nearly twice as prevalent the next biggest newsmaker, Mitt Romney. (To register as a dominant newsmaker, someone must be featured in at least 50% of a story.)

MOUNT VERNON The Ronald McDonald Care Mobile will once again visit the Knox County Health Department as well as two other locations in 2013. The state-of-the-art care mobile is staffed with a full-time doctor, nurse and medical technician. Children from birth to age 21 are eligible for healthcare services ranging from well-care visits to immunizations and sports physicals to sick-child appointments.
The care mobile will be at the health department on Jan. 29, March 26 and May 28. Hours are from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Appointments are not necessary.
New locations include The Sanctuary in Danville on Feb. 26 and Head Start in Fredericktown on April 30.
There is a cost for a visit to the Ronald McDonald Care Mobile. Parents must present their insurance or Medicaid card for their child to receive services. However, no child will be turned away due to a familys inability to pay. If a child has already received services at Nationwide Childrens Hospital or any of the neighborhood Nationwide Childrens Hospital clinics, the childs information is already in the network.
When at the health department, the care mobile will be parked on the south side of the health department and will be visible from Coshocton Road. Visitors do not have to come into the health department first to visit the care mobile, but can come in before the visit to pick up paperwork to be completed.
While appointments are not necessary, visitors can request a specific time by calling the health department medical clinic at 399-8009.

Again as I suggested... maybe a thread for the players that have offers out there just saying only top offers like "Lakers, Grizzlies, Bucks, Nets are interested"... Not indicating how much, but jsut to give people an idea of the teams interested and their cap space availabel
People's Basketball Sim League presents...
1992-93 Season Record: 52-30
C Kevin Willis | PF Otis Thorpe | SF Robert Horry | SG Dell Curry | PG Johnny Dawkins
Key Reserves: Robert Parish | Anthony Mason | Walter Davis | Terry Porter
PS - whenever Eric Gordon comes out in the draft and someone drafts him in the first... be sure to draft a tampon in the 2nd round
I agree with your idea. Not a big fan of private bidding but it looks like we don't have a choice in the matter. I'm just concerned with the whole not knowing what to offer your players. I mean we'll be overpaying from the start because we won't wanna risk losing our star players. Your idea would certainly help in that regard.
and can we make the 1 year deals untradeable? in the NBA a player who signs a 1 year deal can veto the trade
HR Sim League - Washington Wizards
I Wouldn't add any rules, just make the bidding private and send out offers for what you think the guy is worth. Send all of your offers in one PM. Hope you get the ones you want
still shopping my Bulls, Clippers and Suns 03 1st round picks
I thought the bidding war we were preventing was driving up the price then people backing out. But prices on Free Agents get driven up all the time, so I'm OK with it.

DeleGate is a multi-purpose application level gateway or proxy server that mediates communication of various protocols, applying cache and conversion for mediated data, controlling access from clients, and routing toward servers. It translates protocols between clients and servers, converting between IPv4 and IPv6, applying SSL (TLS) to arbitrary protocols, merging several servers into a single server view with aliasing and filtering. It can be used as a simple origin server for some protocols (HTTP, FTP, and NNTP).
GeneWeb is a system for people who want to publish their genealogy data on the Web. It can also be used locally (not connected on the net) as a normal genealogy program. It uses very efficient techniques of relationship and consanguinity computing, speaks several languages, and can run in conjunction with an existing Web server (CGI) or standalone using its own internal server.
Kannel is a WAP gateway. It attempts to provide this essential part of the WAP infrastructure freely to everyone so the market potential for WAP services, both from wireless operators and specialized service providers, will be realized as efficiently as possible. It also works as an SMS gateway for GSM networks. Almost all GSM phones can use it to send and receive SMS messages, so this is a way to serve many more clients than just those using a WAP phone. Kannel was among the first WAP gateways to be certified as WAP 1.1 compliant.
mod_backhand is a load balancing module for Apache. It provides per-request HTTP redirection within a heterogeneous Apache server cluster. Each request is processed and run through a set of "candidacy functions" to determine which server is best suited to respond. The request is then proxied to that server. Facilities are in place to allow you to write your own dynamically loadable decision making algorithms. Everything about the request and the current availability of resources can be used in the decision-making process.
Roxen WebServer is a complete Web server. It is platform-independent, modular, and features a version with strong 128/168-bit encryption. Add-on products for information retrieval, visitor behavior analysis, and powerful tools for application development offering connectivity to databases are available. Altogether the Roxen Platform is a secure Web-based workgroup solution for time and cost-efficient content and Web site management.

It features automatic score processing with strong anti-cheating mechanisms, virtual classes allowing teachers to guide/control student works, online exercise creation, animated graphics, a message board allowing inline mathematical formulas, and more. It can also be easily used for education within other disciplines.
Scsh is a systems-programming environment for POSIX systems and Win32, embedded in the Scheme programming language. It includes a high-level process notation for writing shell-script like programs, with pipelines and redirections. Scsh additionally provides low-level access to POSIX primitives, plus important non-POSIX extensions such as sockets. Scsh is implemented on top of Scheme48, a portable bytecode implementation of Scheme. A number of user-contributed extensions are available, including an extensible HTTP and FTP server, a socket-level PostgreSQL interface, a programmable text formatting language, and a Postscript generation language.
Cherokee is a very fast, flexible and easy to configure Web server. It supports widespread technologies including FastCGI, SCGI, uWSGI, PHP, CGI, SSI, TLS and SSL encrypted connections, virtual hosts, authentication, on the fly encoding, load balancing, Apache compatible log files, database balancing, reverse HTTP proxy, traffic shaping, video streaming, and much more. A user friendly interface called cherokee-admin is provided for no-hassle configuration of the server. It allows you to configure the server from top to bottom without editing a text configuration file.
The C++ Portable Types Library (PTypes) is a simple alternative to the STL that includes multithreading and networking. It defines dynamic strings, character sets, variants, lists and other basic data types along with threads, synchronization primitives and IP sockets. It is portable across modern Unix and Windows systems and includes a sample HTTP daemon showing the full power of the library.
Dwarf is a modular Java framework for developing network server applications based on Internet standards. While focused on building service-based applications like Web servers, mail servers, and messaging services, it can also be used for other applications. The core consists of several packages, which provide a multithreaded kernel, security based on the standard Java 2 Platform Security architecture and the JAAS, logging, configuration, and a management system. Modularity and a fine-grained API allow one to extend the server, to reuse the existing services for a new application, or even create new services based on the existing ones.

Governor Mark Dayton Offering to be a Mediator to End American Crystal LockoutMoorhead, MN (WDAY TV) - Minnesota Governor Mark Dayton is offering to be a mediator to reopen negotiations to end the American Crystal lockout.
Minnesota Governor Mark Dayton is offering to be a mediator to reopen negotiations to end the American Crystal lockout. He offered up the idea at a stakeholder's meeting.
The four month lockout has caught the attention of Governor Mark Dayton, who has dealt with a similar situation. Now he is willing to lend a hand to help end the lockout.
Gov. Mark Dayton (D): "I went through this most recently with the state shut down, and we had major differences, but we had tens of thousands of employees that were being laid off involuntarily."
Dayton says this lockout has caused a terrible divide among people, and although trust may be gone between both parties, in some cases they both need to agree to disagree.
Gov. Mark Dayton (D): "A compromise means a settlement means you agree to things you don't agree with, that means both sides have to do that."
Governor Dayton wasn't the only one discussing his concerns over the lockout, locked out workers and their family members talked about their experiences over the last four months.
Melanie Holbeck – Wife of Locked Out Worker: "The emotions I go through on a daily basis are overwhelming. I have become so angry that the people I have known for years are not stopping this or at the very least asking what it is really about. By the end of the day all I feel is why this community would rather see people not from this area earning the dollars we would have and then put it back in our own community. "
As Holbeck finishes her talk she receives a standing ovation, as others can relate to her.
Nathan Rham, a locked out Hillsboro worker tells Dayton how this lockout has affected his plans of starting a family.
Nathan Rham – Hillsboro Locked Out Worker: "Before this happened I had planned on getting married raising a family and buying a house, now that is all on hold. Now I am just trying to survive day to day and hoping this all ends."
Dayton stands with the crowd as each member finishes their talk as though he can feel their pain. He says he's willing to start a meeting leading to more negotiations between American Crystal Sugar officials and the union.
Gov. Mark Dayton (D): "And I will come to start it and I'll stay as long as it needs to be to get it done."
Dayton says he'll use any authority he has to end the lockout.

Topic review (newest first)
You are supposed to put (x+h)^(2/3) not (0+h)^(2/3) when finding the derivative using the definitions (f(x+h)-f(x))/h.
Did you mean 'vertical' ?
And Example #2 does exactly that.
Question #2.
Yes, I did a mistake in the final step of calculating the limits. Sorry about that. It should be:
But still, I have vs .
Where did 2/3 disappeared?
Question #3.
Actually, I do not see why did you say that domain of the function is just positive numbers? I believe the domain is full R.
After all, we can do :
Not all graphing calculators are smart enough for such function. I am playing with QtiPlot and for "x^(2/3)" it draw the similar image as bob bundy showed. But if I rewrite formula into "(x^2)^(1/3)", I have a more correct graph.
Which still has a strange horizontal part near the zero, which does not disappear when I zoom in.
Still, the f'(0) exists at that point.
hi Stefy,
Hi Bob
hi White_Owl
I don't know if substituting the value of directly into the limit is the right thingto do, but either way, your calculating of the limit is not correct in two ways. First, you reduced it incorrectly to h^(1/3) instead to h^(-1/3). Second you claimed that the left and right limits of what you got aren't the same because they have the same absolute value, but different signs, whereas both limits have the same signed value 0 (which doesn't really have a sign, except when used in limits when denoting left and right limits).
The problem states: if g(x)=x^{2/3}, show that g'(0) does not exist.
Now lets find left and right limits separately:
From this we can see that left and right limits at point 0 are equal by an absolute value, but have opposite signs; therefore, the does not exists.
But according to the rules of differentiation or in this case:
My problem is: how correlate with ?
They are both supposed to be equal to the slope of tangent line, aren't they? What am I missing?

Comfortably seating for more than five people requires three rows of seats, so that means either an SUV or a minivan. The only cars that can seat six or more are the Chevrolet Impala, Mercedes-Benz E350 wagon and Tesla Model S. None of those seats more than five comfortably, and depending on the size of the passengers, maybe four is the practical limit. Some four-door pickups seat six, but there goes your hope for "good mileage."
You didn't drop any hints about your fuel economy expectations, but three-row vehicles aren't among the mileage leaders, so you might have to adjust your thinking.
- Bio | E-mail | Recent columns
The best fuel economy we could find in a three-row vehicle (excluding the electric Model S) is the Toyota Highlander Hybrid, which has EPA ratings of 28 mpg city/highway. However, the third row is cramped, so it may not meet your comfort requirement. The Ford Explorer with the optional 2.0-liter turbocharged EcoBoost engine has EPA ratings of 20/28 mpg city/highway, but it has a cramped second row and tight access to the third row.
The Dodge Journey SUV can seat seven — not necessarily comfortably — and has EPA estimates of 19/26 mpg with a four-cylinder engine. The seven-seat Honda Odyssey minivan (18/27 mpg) and eight-passenger Honda Pilot (18/25 mpg) might also fill your space needs and possibly be economical enough.

Leading a connected debate
Many of the resource challenges we face can only be addressed by working with a broad coalition of partners to create practical, local solutions to address the risks we all share.
In recent years years played an active role in shaping the nexus debate. We believe the private sector must encourage governments to set resource policy in an integrated way so as to maximise economic and social value and manage the inevitable trade-offs. To this end, in South Africa we're a founder member of the Strategic Water Partners Network – part of the global Water Resources Group (WRG) – which brings together businesses and other organisations including the Development Bank of Southern Africa, the South African Water Research Commission and the South African Local Government Association to improve water efficiency and infrastructure.
This year, building on our commitment to sustainable agriculture and our work with farmers, we became members of Grow Africa, which is part of the World Economic Forum's New Vision for Agriculture. Grow Africa is developing partnerships in eight countries in Asia, Latin America and Africa to help achieve sustainable agricultural growth. By playing an active role both in Grow Africa and in WRG, we hope to contribute to new policies that take into account the interconnections between water and agricultural issues.
This year, we participated in the CDP Carbon, Water and Supply Chain Disclosure Projects which provide insight into the risks companies face in these areas. We also joined the Cambridge Natural Capital Leadership Compact, a collaboration to put a monetary value on the earth's natural resources which should lead to much better resource pricing and incentives for efficiency.
In February SABMiller linked up with The Guardian to hold a day of broadcasts and live, online debates on how to achieve interconnected action on water, food and energy security. The debates were viewed online by over 3,000 people from 101 countries. We estimate that through social media we reached over 1.5 million people.

How Can the Economy Recover?
Seeds of Destruction: Why the Path to Economic Ruin Runs Through Washington, and How to Reclaim American Prosperity

Aftershock: The Next Economy and America's Future

Knopf, 174 pp., $25.00
Many recent books and articles by economists and policy analysts ask how the US can recover rapidly from the worst economic crisis since the 1930s. They usually merely assume that the ideal objective is to return to the stable economic growth that preceded the crisis of 2007 and 2008. The underlying assumption is that once adjustments are made, the economy will continue again much along the path it had for a quarter-century. This optimism isn't at all warranted.

In the nearly endless grinding of GSC OU, Misdreavus found a unique role: that of a stallbreaker. With access to both Perish Song and Mean Look, Misdreavus functions as an effective solution to many defensive cores. While it has little in the way of offense and its defensive stats leave much to be desired, it still has the necessary tools to justify its title as one of the premier stallbreakers of the GSC metagame.
This set is Misdreavus's bread and butter, and the reason that it's used in OU—Perish Trapping is simple and yet dastardly effective. With Perish Song and Mean Look Misdreavus can trap and KO many of GSC's top walls, such as Miltank, Forretress, Skarmory, and Blissey. Using Misdreavus is simple: come in on a wall or sleeping Pokemon with low damage output, trap it with Mean Look, then use Perish Song. Protect for two turns, and then switch out while the opponent is KOed. In fact, Misdreavus can rinse and repeat this strategy until the opponent's defensive core is thoroughly broken.
The first three moves are all fairly standard, while the last moveslot lets Misdreavus deal with phazers that can prevent it from Perish Trapping. Thunder is great for nailing Skarmory and Suicune, but leaves Misdreavus helpless against Steelix and Rhydon. Attract and Confuse Ray are also viable options, as they can prevent the trapped opponent from phazing or attacking. The difference between the two is that Confuse Ray hits all opponents regardless of gender, but Attract lasts indefinitely. If using Attract in simulator play, it is usually a good idea to change Misdreavus's gender to whichever one the simulator doesn't auto-select in order to maximize Attract's effectiveness.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
Outside of the options listed above, Misdreavus has a few other interesting choices that have specific uses. Pain Split provides a great way to take advantage of Misdreavus's low HP stat, and also buys some needed recovery while Perish Trapping. Destiny Bond is an interesting option for nailing powerful tanks and sweepers that try to KO Misdreavus, and is notable for its ability to counter Snorlax after a Belly Drum or several Curse boosts. Just be wary of using Destiny Bond against the occasional faster threat that can KO Misdreavus before it gets a chance to use it. Destiny Bond will also leave Misdreavus helpless against phazers, so unless your team can handle them effectively, Thunder or Confuse Ray will usually be better options for Misdreavus.
Checks and Counters
Misdreavus may be a potent stallbreaker, but it does have problems against Pursuit users and phazers. Tyranitar is definitely public enemy number one, as it has access to both Pursuit and Roar, as well as the defenses to shrug off anything Misdreavus can throw at it. Houndoom is another Dark-type that can nail Misdreavus with Pursuit as it switches out of an expected Crunch; it outspeeds Misdreavus as well.
Depending on what move Misdreavus elects to run in the fourth slot, it will have problems with certain phazers. If using Thunder, Misdreavus will struggle against Rhydon, Raikou, and Steelix. Additionally, Thunder only 3HKOes a healthy Suicune, giving it a chance to switch in and phaze Misdreavus if need be. If using Confuse Ray, Misdreavus will not be able to do appreciable damage to any phazer, and will be left out to dry if confusion does not take effect while the opponent uses either Roar or Whirlwind.
Misdreavus is not a naturally defensive Pokemon, and it will struggle to trap and kill any Pokemon that can 2HKO it. For example, Marowak will do a minimum of 79% damage with Earthquake, and unboosted Rhydon will consistently do around 55%, which will almost always be a 2HKO unless Misdreavus can use Pain Split. Belly Drum Snorlax is also notable for its ability to KO Misdreavus with Earthquake after a Belly Drum. However, countering does have its risks, as Misdreavus can try and Protect twice after Perish Song, giving the opponent only a 50% chance of KOing.
On a final note, Misdreavus detests Spikes and status. With its low HP and susceptibility to powerful physical attacks, Misdreavus wants all the health it can get. Outside of Leftovers and Pain Split, Misdreavus has no real options to restore its rather meager health. As such, setting up Spikes will go a long way in preventing it from working effectively. A poisoned or sleeping Misdreavus can also find itself up a creek without a paddle if it tries switching in on the wrong move.

Happy birthday today (Tuesday) to an Olympic champion who died 29 years ago this month. Our birthday athlete was born the same year as was Cary Grant.
This champion set a world record one week after Charles Lindbergh landed in Paris, becoming the first pilot to fly solo, nonstop across the Atlantic Ocean. The Ahwahnee Hotel in Yosemite open about eight weeks after our birthday champion set the world record.
An Ivy League school graduate, this athlete won the Olympic gold medal on the first day of August almost exactly one year after the Ahwahnee Hotel opened in Yosemite National Park.
Our birthday person was the first to clear a certain "barrier" in his event. He also shares the same initials as two male Olympic champions. One of these champions was deeply involved in the London Olympics this year. The other Olympic champion still competes today in the sprints.
After retiring from track and field competition, this athlete made money in the lumber business in Oakland, California. He died in Santa Barbara, California (29 years ago one week from tomorrow).
The state in which our birthday athlete was born contains four letters. The college where he went to school also contains only four letters. Our birthday person's last name contains four letters.
Setting an Olympic record, this champion led a one-two-three sweep for his country.
Do you know this gold medalist? Some of you do. Name this man.

What it really means to be Thankful
This past Thanksgiving, I was grateful for many things. My parents came from out of town to spend a weekend full of family, feasting, football (Go Packers!), laughter and plenty of turkey comas. I also got to experience my first Black Friday working at the Nike Outlet at Aurora Farms. This definitely didn't help me get over my sickness, but at least I was able to make it on television on News Net 5! My friend sharing with me a great SNL video of Will Ferrell and Chris Katan singing as Air Supply about Thanksgiving time capped off the weekend. A definite great way to end the weekend!
I also came across a recent photo my brother shared with me, which he found on Deviant Art. This really opened my eyes about what you really should be thankful for. I hope you find some meaning in this as well!
"If you have food in the fridge, clothes on your back, a roof over your head and a place to sleep, you are richer than 75% of the world. If you have any money in the bank, your wallet and some spare change in a dish someplace, you are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy. If you woke up this morning with more health than illness, you are more blessed than the million people who will not survive this week. If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the agony of imprisonment or torture or the horrible pangs of starvation, you are luckier than 500 million people alive going through this suffering. If you can read this message you are more fortunate than the 3 billion people in the world who cannot read at all."
What are you thankful for this Holiday season?

"List price" is the suggested retail price provided to us by our vendors. We make no representation that a substantial number of these products have been sold or offered for sale at the list price. Actual retail prices in your area may be substantially different. Since we sell products on a national basis, it is not possible to know if our merchandise is sold at list price in any particular location or at any particular time. "You Save" reflects the difference between our price and the vendor provided list price shown on our sites. Since the list price may be different than the actual retail prices in your area, you may not actually realize a savings of this amount.
Manufacturers sometimes ask that retailers not display a price if it drops below a certain amount. The "Click here to see Lowest Price" message indicates that the price of the item is so low that the manufacturer requested that it not be advertised (that is, displayed). In a brick-and-mortar store, you would probably have to ask a salesperson what the price of the product is. At eCOST, by clicking on "Click here to see Lowest Price" you are essentially asking to see the price, at which point we show it to you.
